Of these two categories of manifestation, one is material nature, which embodies both the subtle causes and manifest products of matter. The other is the conscious living entity, designated as the enjoyer.

According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, prakṛti here refers to the subtle pradhāna, which later becomes manifest as mahat-tattva.

Translation
Of these two categories of manifestation, one is prakṛti, which embodies cause and effect. The other is the conscious living entity, designated as the jīva. Of the two aṁśas of the Lord, one, māyā, is called prakṛti, which exists as both cause and effect. The other entity is the jīva with knowledge as his nature.
